Alamo Heights ISD voters overwhelmingly approved three bond propositions in May 2023. Bond 2023 will provide updated learning spaces at all campuses, continue to address safety and security, and allow the district to be better community partners with additional parking, improved traffic flow, and outdoor and meeting spaces for community use.

The work will be divided into three project packages. Planning for Package One began in summer/fall 2023. AHISD is committed to sharing regular updates about the design, planning, and construction phases during this exciting time for the district.

The new high school schematic design was shared at the January 2024 Board Meeting. Construction at AHHS is expected to last from May 2024 until August 2026.



Package One also includes the relocation of the Excel Academy and Connects program to the current AHISD Central Office and the construction of a new Central Office/Learning Center for our school community.

September 2024 

During the month of September, demolition and debris haul-off continued at Alamo Heights HS. A little less than 600 truckloads of materials were hauled away during this process. In October, crews will break ground on the new building and enter a new phase of the construction process. The project remains on time and on budget.

Also in September, the beloved Mule statue was reinstalled by the north entrance to Orem Stadium. 

August 2024 

August brought the start of the school year and students and staff are back on the Alamo Heights HS campus adjusting to the new set up during construction. Teachers did a wonderful job setting up classrooms and making ‘the Mods’ feel like home. Many classrooms are larger than what they had in the previous building.

Demolition work continued in a major way with most of the main building demolished in August. The haul off of debris is underway.

The Broadway North parking lot (formerly the Colony House apartments) was completed this month and will be ready for student permit parking in addition to the Broadway South parking lot. With these two lots, there are actually more parking spots available on campus than last year.

The Bond Community Council met in mid August and after receiving updates from LPA Architects and the District’s Bond Manager, the group toured the modular classrooms and the new temporary library space. Trustees also toured the spaces this month.

July 2024 

July 2024 brought noticeable changes to the AHHS building, modular classrooms, and temporary parking lots.

The former Colony House apartments along Broadway were demolished and work began to turn the site into a secondary temporary parking lot. The other temporary parking lot, at the corner of Broadway and Castano, is complete. 

The AHHS administration and office staff moved into their temporary office space at the corner of Castano and Vanderhoven. All visitors to the campus will check in at this location.

Crews also worked on the final touches to the modular classrooms to prepare for teacher arrival in early August and worked on the installation of fencing and exterior lighting. 

Demolition is underway on the main Academic Wing.
